Hyundai I30: Steering Assistance May Be Lost

Recalling firm
HYUNDAI
Product
Vehicles: HYUNDAI i30. Units affected: 12,512
Reason
Two LEDs are used to calculate torque applied to the steering wheel. If the ECU senses a discrepancy in the torque sensing circuitry an indicator lamp is illuminated in the instrument cluster a diagnostic code is stored and steering assist is no longer provided. The driver will have to supply more effort to steering the vehicle. Remedy: Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and re-programme the steering ECU. The steering will then be tested. If the vehicle fails the test a new torque sensor will be fitted.
